First of all, you got the ESTP process incorrect before. If Se feeds Ti, then that puts Ti first, in that Se serves Ti evidence for a theory or hypothesis, let's say, why the car is putting out so much smoke.

Why does this put Ti first? And in what way is this even relevant, from the perspective of your argument that Se/Ti are somehow predictive?

Secondly, this analysis isn't capturing the essence of any personality under question here. Pod'Lair got it right by stating that their version of Se-dom focuses on the enjoyment of the senses, it is not merely engaged in the gathering of information like a computer.

It quite clearly captures the first coping strategy of the ESTP. As far as Pol'Lair, don't give a flying fuck about it.

I already had that notion about the Se-dom before reading Pod'Lair. I don't care for it, on the other hand, they do give some colorful descriptions of types. I take what I want and leave the rest, even if the rest is 99% of the total.

Ti comes first because Se in this case is reduced to an information-gathering function. If Se was first, Ti would be reduced to a logic-producing system. But in your analysis, they are both in the auxiliary position: information-gathering and logic-producing.

It just goes back to what I said before, you're not capturing the essence of personality here. Just elements of cognition. That's all those are.

No. ESTPs lead with Se. Ti supports Se. Together, they merge to create the first coping strategy. Reliance on concrete externalities that get fed to a logic function. The logic function feeds back to Se which then reacts. Sometimes Se just reacts on its own.

But again, you're going down a rabbit hole. WTF does any of this have to do with calling either predictive or forecasting functions? You're dissembling because you don't want to admit you're wrong.

I appreciate your analysis in the first paragraph. But I never mentioned any functions until you brought up functions. I don't need intuition to predict things, for that I only need experience.
